BALTIMORE, Sept. The announcement
from New York 70 the effect that the Balti-
more Il Ohio road had been practically
rnortgaged to the extent of Sl0W0. 600, and
that the management of the road would pass
over to Drexel, Morgan Il Co, has created
considerable excitement in this city and is the
chief topic of conversation on the streets.
The sale of the Baltimore & Ohio Express
still occupied the public mind when this sec
ond surprise came like thunderbolt The
officials OF the road would add nothing to the
information contained in the Drexel state
meut. but the announcement was complete
surprise to Mayor Hodge, and he conld
scarcely believe that the Baltimore & Ohio
Railroad company would take such step
without consulting the city, which owns -, :
no shares of stock, upon the matter. He
could not believe that the Baltimore & Ohio
had such an immense floating debt as TO re-
quire a loan Of $40 0e0, 900 to pay it off. He
thinks the stability OF the company, when
brought over to purely railroad business
Is unimpalred
There is report current which enanates
| from a Seni-otficial source that prior to his
departure for Europe, Robert Garrett gave
| TO John W Mackay m option to purchase
the Baltimore K Ohio Telegraph, sud option
to expire Sept 10, inst.
The American publishes the following ed
tnrial: Since the Ives deal, this city has been
prepared for almost anything in connection
| with the Baltimore & Ohio railroad, but
with all ITS philosophy it cannot help from

| The Virginia Report thus dis
courses on Reno's boom:
1t is false. 1t is fictitious. It is
worked up like a mining stock.
There is scarcely business in the
town of Reno that is not overdone.
OF course there exists a numerous
class who have beds to rent and
food and refreshments to sell who
are incessentlv booming the town
and cursing every one who tells the
truth. And there are a great many
good, solic4 business men in Reno
who tell the truth about their boom.
Every clother, grocer, and all
classes OF retail jobbers except one,
assert most emphatically that
the newspaper boom and the Fourth
OF July and picnic boom is totally
without merit, excuse or provoca-
ton. They call it hotel or refresh
ment boom-anything to get WIS.,
tors. But this is not to say that
they deny that Washoe county has
great possibilities of development,
and that Reno will eventually be a
prosperous and pepulous town. In
short, they only point out the char
acter of the boom.
Reno now has two banks-two
usurious blooj-suckers. Already
the farmers have moved their crops
through the help of the banks, leav-
ing two per cent of the seasons
work in the banks and several in
stances the next years crop is al
ready shaved-that's what they
call Improvement and Loan soci-
cites. These banks are like institu-
ions will do for the Washoe farmer
exactly what the British and French
Egyptian Improvement and loan"
syndicates have done for the Egypt
an farmers. 1t is impossible for
t to turn out otherwise. 1t is IN
with the laws of the
country and natural result of its
operation. Of course few fishes
will escape the mesh, but the bulk
will remain in its ENHANCEMENT.
And this is the county that de-
hands the removal of the capitol
o Reno on the ground that Reno

POPULAIe TRIBUNALS.
BancrOft,s Latest Addition to
Pacific Coast History.

/ Pacific Coast History.
Bancrofts line of history is now
getting down TO the happenings on
the Coast which comes within the
memory of man. The last entitled
| popular Tribunals tell of the or
| carnations which society was
obliged to resort to, to preserve life
and property against the inroads of
the murderous, thieving element,
that held sway in early days. 1t is
a thrilling, sensational volume and
the scenes are wildly described. In
short, it is an unbroken record of
the doings, or rather misdoings, of
people in the "days OF gold" on the
Pacific Coast. The following little
incident is only one of hundred of
a similar character described by the
author in this volume:
One night, in q certain mining
camp in the Sierras, sailor who
had deserted his ship, stole two
bags containing about five thousand
dollars worth of gold, and seized
third containing half dollars in sill
yer. The jingling of the coin awoke
the o xner, who gave the alarm and
the thief was captured. A jury OF
twelve miners, with a man named
huffman officiating as Judge, tried
the case. The sailor was found
guilty and sentenced to be hanged.
1t was finally thought best, how
ever, not to take his life, but to |
give him 100 lashes on his bare |
back, cut off his ears and shave his |
head, so that he should be recog-
nized as felcn wherever he went. |
The sentence was carried into effect, |
and the fellow kicked out of camp. |
Stealing the first mule he came to,
ne rode to Calavaras Diggings, where
he animal was claimed by the
owner. Again he was tried and
;entenced to be fogged, but when
aid bare his back was found so cut
Up by stripes that there was no
place left to whip. The miners had
and drove him out of
he district unpublished.
The volume deals of incidents of
Judge Lynch's Court in California,
Oregon, Arizona, Utah and Nevada.

1t was the lightning process and no
mistake. 1t took them about ten
